GAS-BURNER.

.To-.all :whom it mayl concern:

Be it known that al, JOHN M. HARE, .a citizen 'of .the vUnited States of America, residingat Belle Vernon,=in the county of Fayette :and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improveinentsin GasfBurners, of which. the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.

This invention relates to gasburners, and the primary object of my invention is the provision of simple and effective means for obtaining a perfect `combustion of yair and gas for producing a flame of high caloric intensity.

Another object of this invention is to provide a burner that can be advantageously used in connection with a hot plate or a gas range.

A further object of this invention is to provide a burner with a rarefying chamber the invention consists in the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts to be presently described and then specifically pointed out in the appended claims.

In the drawings z-Figure 1 is a cross sectional view of my burner, and Fig. 2 is a plan of the same. i

To put my invention into practice, I rovide a Bunsen burner or tube 1 wit i a peripheral flange 2 for supporting a cylindrical casing 3, said casing near its upper end having a horizontal partition 4 provided with a central flanged opening 5 for the upper end of the tube or burner 1. The bottom of the casing 3 is provided with openings 6 for admitting air to the casing Y and the partition 4 is provided with openings 7 for allowing theair to pass out of the upper end of the casing 3 and commingle with the gas from theBunsen burner or tube" 1.

The casing 3 adjacent to the u per end thereof is provided with a periphera flange 8 and supported upon said flange is a pan 9 having inclined wallsl 10 provided with a peripheral flange 11. The pan 9 is formed with a central opening 12 to receive the upper end of the casing 3, and adjacent to lSpeciicaton of Letters Patent.

Serial No. 449,069.

the inclined walls 10 is provided with an annular 4groove 13. In the-annular groove 13 is supported a cylindrical drum -14 and upon the-upper edges of this drum-is mounted a circular plate 15,v said plate having an annular groove 16 to receive the' upper edges ofthe drum 14. rlhe plate is of a less `diameter than the inner diameter of the top ef pan 9, whereby a circular slot 17 will beformedraround the edges of the plate 15.

Upon the partition Y4 within the drum 14 is supported a mixing chamber 18 adapted Jr-o--reeeive the air fromthe casing 3 and the gas lfromthe burner or tube 1, the air and gas commingling in the chamber 18, and eventually escaping through an opening 19 ro'vided therefor in the top of the chamber.

he mixed air and gas entering the drum 14 is rarelied by being heated by the plate 15 when the burner is in operation, consev quently when the air and gas es'cape through openings 20 provided therefor in the drum 14, and the slot 17, the mixed air and gas will be in an inflammable condition and can be i nited at the slot 17,

I ave illustrated the burner as supported in a hot plate 21 by the peripheral flange 11 of the pan 9, and a receptacle or utensil placed upon-the burner is supported by radially disposed ribs 22 of the plate 15, these ribs being in a plane with the upper surface of the hot plate 21. f

A burner constructed in accordance with my invention, produces heat units ofa high caloric intensity, consequently, I obtain considerable heat from my burner with a minimum expenditure of gas. The plate 15 Aserves to disseminate the commingled air and gas ejected from the mixer 18, and the air and gas is equally distributed from the drum 14 by virtue of the cireumferentially arranged openings 2O which are in direct communication with the circular slot 17.

While in the drawings forming a art of this application there is illustrated t ie preferred embodiments of my invention, it is to be understood that the elements therein can be varied 4or changed without departing from the spirit of the invention.

' Having now described my invention what I claim as new, is:-

1. Ina burner, the combination with a bunsen tube, of a casing surrounding said tube and supported thereby, said Casin having a partition formed therein provider with i tion of said. casing, said chain 5 per edges of the side Walls of said an, and

providing a circular slot between t `e edges of said plate and the side Walls of said pan, a mixing chamber supported u on the parti- Pber having an opening formed therein for admitting air and gas to said drum, and radially disposed ribs arranged upon said plate, substantially as described.

2. The combination With a bunsen tube, of a casing supported thereby, said casing having openings formed therein for admitting air, a pan supported by said casing, a

I drum arranged within said pan, a iate supported by said drum and being of a ess diam* eter than said pan for providing a circular slot at the ed es of said pan, a miXin chamber supporte by said casing,l saidvc .amber having an opening formed therein for admitting air to said drum, and said drumvhaving openings formed therein for admitting air and gas to said circular slot.

3. The combination With a burner of a casin surrounding said burner and having air in et openings ormed therein`,` a pan supported by said casing, a drum arranged 1n said pan, a plate su ported by said drum and providing a circu ar slot at the edges of said pan, a mixing chamber supported by said casing and having an opening formed therein for admitting air and gas to said drum, and said drumhaving openings formed therein establishing communication with said slot.'

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
